Victoria Louise, Duchess of Brunswick Part II

[Yelena Aleksandrovna]

Did Viktoria Louisa loved very much having pets?

[Adagietto]

She certainly seemed to like dachshunds, she had her own later.

I recall reading in her memoirs that she was fond of dogs.

[Yelena Aleksandrovna]

Yes, in several of photos of her she is taking dogs or being near of them ;-)
Didn't she like other animals?

[HerrKaiser]

As pets, who knows? But, both she and her mother, the Kaiserin, did spend a reasonable amount of time at the zoological garten in Berlin.

[Yelena Aleksandrovna]

I didn't know that, she was really interested in animals ;-)

Do you know what is written in the last part of the photo of VL on the window?

[Carolath Habsburg]

No,im sorry buit i suspect its something that someone wrote before sending that postcard

Can someone tell me about this gentleman?



Ernst August Hanover, eldest son of V.L. Was this one who had problems with her?. Thanks in advanced.

[Adagietto]

That's the one. Looks to be overflowing with human kindness, doesn't he?

hahaha. Its like he s trying to scare people with that fierce look but looks kind of silly. I wonder what he would thought if he knew his son is called Ernst august "Hangover" or as we call it in spanish "Hanebrio" (Ebrio = drunk)

[HerrKaiser]

I suspect that if one was to photoshop his outfit, remove the nazi garb, and replace it with a fashionable business suit in the way cousin Louis Ferdinand was often photographed, his facial expression would not appear silly or fierce, but rather a bit calm and charming.
